Rapid, Plateau-like Increases in Intracellular Free Calcium Are Associated with Nod-Factor—Induced Root-Hair Deformation

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1997
Rhizobia excrete variously substituted lipo-oligosaccha-ride Nod factors into the legume rhizosphere. Homologous legumes respond to these signals through deformation of the root hairs and the development of nodulation foci in the root cortex.

Regulation of Phytohormones on the Growth and Development of Plant Root Hair

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The tubular-shaped unicellular extensions of plant epidermal cells known as root hairs are important components of plant roots and play crucial roles in absorbing nutrients and water and in responding to stress.

The circular F-actin bundles provide a track for turnaround and bidirectional movement of mitochondria in Arabidopsis root hair. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The movement of organelles in root hairs primarily occurs along the actin cytoskeleton. Circulation and "reverse fountain" cytoplasmic streaming constitute the typical forms by which most organelles (such as mitochondria and the Golgi apparatus) in plant

The Root Hair Development of Pectin Polygalacturonase PGX2 Activation Tagging Line in Response to Phosphate Deficiency

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Pectin, cellulose, and hemicellulose constitute the primary cell wall in eudicots and function in multiple developmental processes in plants. Root hairs are outgrowths of specialized epidermal cells that absorb water and nutrients from the soil.

Insight into the early steps of root hair formation revealed by the procuste1 cellulose synthase mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

, 2008
Background: formation of plant root hairs originating from epidermal cells involves selection of a polar initiation site and production of an initial hair bulge which requires local cell wall loosening. In Arabidopsis the polar initiation site is located

Root hair specification and its growth in response to nutrients

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2021
Plant root hairs are cylindrical tubular projections from root epidermal cells. They increase the root surface area, which is important for the acquisition of water and nutrients, microbe interactions, and plant anchorage.

Role of Cellulose Fibrils and Exopolysaccharides of Rhizobium leguminosarum in Attachment to and Infection of Vicia sativa Root Hairs

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2005
Infection and subsequent nodulation of legume host plants by the root nodule symbiote Rhizobium leguminosarum usually require attachment of the bacteria to root-hair tips.

Phosphorus Uptake and Growth of Wild-Type Barley and Its Root-Hairless Mutant Cultured in Buffered-and Non-Buffered-P Solutions

Agronomy, 2020
Root hairs play an important role in phosphorus (P) nutrition of plants. To better understand the relationship between root hairs and P acquisition efficiency (PAE) in barley, experiments were conducted with the wild-type barley (cv.

Root hair sweet growth [PDF]

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2011
Root hairs are single cells specialized in the absorption of water and nutrients from the soil. Growing root hairs require intensive cell-wall changes to accommodate cell expansion at the apical end by a process known as tip or polarized growth. We have recently shown that cell wall glycoproteins such as extensions (EXTs) are essential components of ...
